Philosophy

Our philosophy is based on the belief that children learn through play and experience. Children, families and educators values and beliefs are an integral part of our program.

We believe that children are naturally curious and they have the right to live fully in their childhood. We believe children are competent and we know they have a desire to learn, grow and make meaning of their world around them. Thus, we believe we must provide a safe, happy, nurturing and stimulating environment where children are able to develop physically, emotionally, socially and intellectually. We believe that all children including those with additional support needs are entitled to have this equal opportunity to learn, grow and develop.

We believe that Early Childhood Educators and parents need to work closely together to provide children with optimal experiences in the centre and at home.

As professionals, we value diversity and include children of all abilities into every aspect of our programming. Our program and the environment are easily adaptable to meet the needs of all children participating. We access any funding available to ensure appropriate support for each child. As part of our commitment to children, our educators receive support to pursue life-long learning opportunities.

Robertson Early Enrichment Program Inc. welcomes children and families of all ethnicities, backgrounds, beliefs and abilities. We will continue to strive to be an inclusive childcare program, as we believe it will benefit all children, families, educators and the community as a whole.
